THE Shirt

Let's get one thing out in the open. I am THE worst model of all time. I never know what to do with my arms, I am always squinting, and I have about 2 poses in my repertoire. (I think I should send in this last picture for my Top Model audition.) Now that that's been put out there....

When I saw Annie in this top, I nearly passed out. Polka dots AND sequins? I searched for it the following week at JCrew, and theprice made me want to cry. Go figure, right? Last weekend, though, I saw this top on the 40% off rack, with an additional 40% off of that, and with a gift card burning a hole in my Vera Bradley back pack, I took this baby home with me! I can't wait to wear it every day for the rest of my life!!

I LOVE colored jeans! So fun, and I'm sorry but I am the one with awkward poises and such. You look super cute in your photos. Now that we have that settled, you look adorable and I love the jeans. :)Hailey @ Love, Laughter and Lipstick

I swear we are two peas in a pod! Do you know what I bought last Friday? Red jeans. ($70 at Belk, on sale for $19!) Do you know what I plan to wear them with? Short sleeved sequin top. But mine does not have polka dots. I am a sad panda.

You are NOT a horrible model. I think we all suffer from un-known arm posing syndrome. I obviously made that up but it's true. I think you look awesome and you're right that shirt is pretty perfect. Especially with those pants. Also pretty perfect. xx

I've been seeing this shirt everywhere too, how GORGEOUS is it??? So glad you are a proud owner, I may be a little jealous. I'm pretty sure you can wear it every day for the rest of your life because it will match anything.

Well darling none of us have model coaches telling us what to do with our bodies in front of cameras...so we all can feel silly but know this:: You are a knock out and you look amazing in this outfit! I love the red pants and the busy top! You would think they would be too busy together but it so works and I want that top (could you imagine me in that girly top...haha..)!

J.Crew sales make my little heart flutter! And that top is to die for, I've seen it a bunch on the website but never saw it "in person" until now. It looks great on you! And aside from being awkward and gangly in front of a camera, I only ever wear black, so I'm definitely not equipped to do fashion posts like you! xo

hi Ashley! You are so fun. I know what you mean about posing. I did the cutest snap when doing my latest post but my hand was in a weird spot and I couldn't use it. Maybe I'll do a post with all my odd pics sometime for a blast of LOL. I love your red pants. so awesome.

I feel like I don't know what to do with my arms, either. The old one-hand-on-hip always works. Or what I do is pretend I'm at one of those parties where it's just standing around and talking, and the camera is the person I'm currently listening to. And sometimes shots where you're *not* looking at the camera can be good mixed in, too.

Love it! I've been seeing this top around the blogosphere but just love how you paired it with the fun red pants! Can't believe I haven't stumbled upon your blog before now-- I'm a dancer too so automatically feel a kinship :) Looking forward to following!xx, Emilyhttp://soanthro.com

Dang! I saw that shirt at JCrew and wanted to get it. Then- I went back on what I thought was going to be the big sale day and the JCrew at my mall said CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS! SO sad...now it's worse since you got it and look adorable in it! Oh well...I love the red pants.Check me out in my red pants from Old Navy

Hey Ashley!! I loooove this top! Polka dots AND sequins... my mind is blown! It looks so gorgeous on you - and I love it with the red jeans. And you look so beautiful in those photos, I think you're a great model :)
